[Bug 363695] Re: update-apt-xapian-index uses too much CPU

[aexl]

tormod,

the first possible aim "make apt-xapian background indexing as nice as
possible" is reached.

of course one could say "make apt-xapian background indexing an option
which can be switched off" - i think here we need an analysis

* how can it be switched off
* what are the implications (like: do we only lose a fancy search option or does the whole apt system break)

any insights or weblinks welcome.

A background silent update process shouldn't use 98% CPU. It makes system sluggish with no visible reason.
